MidWest Ohio Dental Care

MidWest Ohio Dental Care is a prominent dental practice serving the communities of Sidney and Piqua, Ohio. The clinic was initially established in August 1991 as Charles J. Edelen, DDS, Inc., by Dr. Charles J. Edelen, who brought extensive experience from his service with the U.S. Public Health Service on Indian Reservations. The practice saw significant growth, leading to a major office renovation in 2001. In 2002, Dr. Damen Patel joined as an associate, becoming a full partner in 2003, at which point the practice was renamed Shelby Family Dental Care. Further expansion occurred in 2004 with the acquisition of the practice of the retiring Dr. David Fields, and in 2011, Drs. Edelen and Patel acquired Dr. Andrew Jackson's Piqua-based practice, unifying their operations under the current name, MidWest Ohio Dental Care, to better reflect their broader patient base across the region. The clinic offers a wide array of dental services, catering to various oral health needs. Their general services include routine cleanings and examinations, digital x-rays for minimal exposure, dental extractions, crowns and bridges, endodontic treatment (root canals), non-surgical treatment for periodontal disease, porcelain veneers and bonding, and teeth whitening. For more advanced care, they provide cosmetic dentistry, full and partial dentures, orthodontic treatment (braces and clear aligners), implants for replacing missing teeth or stabilizing dentures, and minor oral surgery. A notable aspect of their advanced services is the use of CEREC All-Ceramic Restorations, which allows for crowns, veneers, inlays, and onlays to be completed in a single office visit, eliminating the need for impressions or temporaries. They also utilize the Sirona XG3D Panoramic/Cephalometric Radiography Unit for precise implant placement, leading to quicker procedures with fewer return visits and excellent functional and aesthetic results. MidWest Ohio Dental Care emphasizes building long-lasting relationships with their patients, focusing on preventive care and ensuring comfort throughout the dental experience. The team includes dedicated professionals like Dr. Edelen, Dr. Patel, and Dr. Nicole Lochard, who joined upon graduating from The Ohio State University College of Dentistry in 2019. The staff is committed to providing high-quality, modern dental care and is praised by patients for their friendly and caring approach. They strive to make patients feel at ease and well-informed about their treatment options, offering a comprehensive and patient-centered approach to dental health.
